Description:
- install 5.2.31 Workbench
- make a couple of Connections
- upgrade to 5.2.41
- try to open any Connection
- log in on the connection
- Workbench hangs

you get the login dialog, then you get the "opening sqleditor, please wait" dialog box, but you never get past the dialog --- no connection ever opens. I have let it sit for over 10 mins

How to repeat:
- install 5.2.31 Workbench
- make a couple of Connections
- upgrade to 5.2.41
- try to open any Connection
- log in on the connection
- Workbench hangs

you get the login dialog, then you get the "opening sqleditor, please wait" dialog box, but you never get past the dialog --- no connection ever opens. I have let it sit for over 10 mins

Suggested fix:
time-out on connection attempt for starters. Option to repair a connection that may be bad

Looks like a duplicate of my report here:

It is the same dialog that hangs for you?
